ICHEP 2020, the biggest specialized conference on particle physics, will this year take place only on-line. However, please note that there will be an extra-ordinary program for the general public on the borderline between physics, philosophy and art, which will be accessible for absolutely everybody.
Conferences in the ICHEP series traditionally offer a broad-ranging accompanying program for the public. The organizers have decided keep this tradition going again this year, although the conference has been transferred in its entirety to an internet environment. For the first time ever, the day for the general public will be fully digital. Absolutely anyone, with no restriction on numbers of participants, can join in a single experiment that will not just be entertaining and will perhaps inspire some further thinking, but will at the same time test the technological capability of the present-day internet. We will join together to test what the internet can withstand!
